Fans expecting and led to believe there would be decisions made on final 2 Team places once Australian Finals were over but with nothing to report come up with a big announcement announcement to say Havvy as away team manager and Racesuits is something of a letdown to put it mildly. I think the issue is, there are wasted points In the team personally I think mcdonald is a poor signing. I have a feeling roynon will come in on a reduced gsa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, Havvy was always in the frame for the joint managers position for the Northern tracks, and Neil does the southern half, he has his dad to think about. And racesuits again were in the offing. But hey dont you worry about us we will be there come play off time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 Personally I have never had any issue with Havvy, great rider in his day, always pulled out all the stops for his country and nice guy to talk to in my own experience, judging by some comments others haven't had the same experience as myself but I can only speak as I find. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never liked him as a rider and even less respect as a person. he was the one that brought the club back to life in the late nineties, it was completely dead in the water prior 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiveusaB Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 A manager in the North and one in the South ....is that because of Brexit, or just a language barrier??? LOL No wonder nobody takes the sport seriously !? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poolebolton Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 I think last nights announcements were great. I quite like the 2 manger idea. And surely racesuits is a good thing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Najjer Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) What a great idea with the racesuits. Forever and beyond promotors have whinged and said how much they cost (as proven before, isn't a great sum of money), well this is a great way of involving fans and sponsors whilst covering the costs too. I see no reason now why other teams don't follow this idea up now and launch a similar campaign themselves.

I can’t say first hand about other teams, but I know Glasgow have done this for years and still do. On the “oop north” team manager, I did offer but somehow they thought Havvy was a better bet. From my point of view, I think they’re right 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need a track expert and ££ to fix it, not riders Did they not have a so called track expert last year look what that did for the track? And lost Matt Ford a load of money.
